I wasn't really looking for bright, just something which seemed robust!
In fact, when it comes to number plates, isn't less "more" for the criminal side in us all ;-)

I'm still toying with the idea of fitting a reversing camera instead of parking sensors:

I don't have a sat nav but Idle minds will play!!
I'm looking at a satnav with AV-in to do the job of both instead of a dedicated reversing screen....the missus will kill me eventually, it's just a case of when!

Camera is low on the agenda, too much to do as it is!

The Parrot has an LCS screen, wonder if in someway this could send a signal through the 'line in' cable to the parrot lcd display?

I dont think it will work, no.

Its a shame the Parrot doesnt have an LCD screen or can use a LCD screen that has av input.

Which LED's can i replace my side lights with? They look like the next ones to be changed, They just don't look right next to the Xenons.
